What is corned beef hash?
Hash originated in the United Kingdom as a way to use up leftovers. It consists of chopped meat, potatoes and onions.
Canned corned beef hash became popular during and after World War 2 in France, Untied Stares, and Britain as a way to ration fresh meat.
Hash can be made as simple or as fancy as you like using lamb, venison, steak, shrimp, or chicken. Different regions of the country have their own unique spin on this classic dish.
